Like the iconic character Dorothy from the “Wizard of Oz,” Oren Sherman has long been a dreamer, creating art at the intersection of reality and imagination.
It’s led the renowned designer and artist to magnificent places – he’s created multiple stamps for the U.S. Postal Service, and artwork for an impressive array of clients that have included the Olympics, Disney, PepsiCo, Steuben Glass, and Visa. Oren is a multifaceted talent – a gifted storyteller, successful entrepreneur, and branding wizard – who willingly shares his expertise with the next generation as a professor at his alma mater, the Rhode Island School of Design.
In this funny, engaging, inspirational discussion with host Julie Wake, Oren takes listeners on a journey – he even makes a stop to the magical world of Oz – as he talks about the importance of failures, reinvention, and imagination.
Connect with Oren through his website and listen to his TedTalk that was mentioned in the episode!
